Hi friends! I have two special cards to share today. This week we're bringing you sneak peeks of the newest CAS-ual Fridays Stamps to be released on January 18th. You can find all of the details about the schedule of events, including the sneak peeks and prizes, on the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog.
Today's cards were made with a new set called Loving Thoughts. For the first card, I did some masking with a Post-it note and stamped a frame using one of the flower images in the set. I just love how it turned out! I nestled one of the sentiments in the corner, added a pierced frame, and mounted the panel with foam dots on a square of plum cardstock.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Vintage Cream), Stampin' Up! (Perfect Plum)
Stamps: CAS-ual Fridays Stamps (Loving Thoughts)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Rich Razzleberry)
My second card uses the floral images in a more traditional way, stamped onto a kraft card base with a masked strip for the sentiment. I love the look of the red, black, and white stamped onto kraft.
I selectively inked the sentiment to make the word "love" stand out and added scored lines on either side.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Kraft)
Stamps: CAS-ual Fridays Stamps (Loving Thoughts)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Real Red), Memento (Tuxedo Black), Clearsnap (Frost White)
Tool: Martha Stewart Crafts (scoring board)

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope your week gets off to a great start.

You are really showing off that new stamp set to great advantage. I love both of your cards. I never thought to do what you did with the masked frame on your first card--it's such a cool look.
Great flower images and cards showcasing the set :)
Oh Christina ,these are sooo BEAUTIFUL!! I especially love your stamping and masking on the first one - such WONDERFUL design!
Wonderful cards!
OK you are officially a stamping master! "A little masking" code for "hang on to your hats people"!! Your first is just stunning Christina! I love the contrast of the eggplant and white, and your second - I know that would have taken me several tries to get the sentiment in the embossed section spaced perfectly - forget all the rest! Well done!
These are so fantastic! That top card is just breathtaking!
LOVE that second card!!
Love how you created the floral frame, so pretty and the colour combo on the second is so striking.
I love the font. Reminds me of the old (old!) Arctic Frog letter stickers.
So beautiful Christina, an amazing showcase of the new stamps.
Both of these cards are FANTASTIC, Christina, but that second one totally knocks my socks off!!! WOWZERS!!! Stamping perfection, my friend!!! LOVE IT!
Both are gorgeous, Christina! I am in awe of the masking you did on the first card! Love the colors and the great font on the sentiment. And the wonderful stamping on kraft in the second card--love it!
